   ...There's a slightly thinner make of vellour that has a glossier   
   sheen to it. Costs about twice as much as the regular stuff, which is   
   why only McCoy's tunic was made out of it.

   ...They did a whole different color scheme for TMP that was used only   
   for that one film. There's a few costume sketches I've seen for Phase   
   2 that proposed how the color schemes for the uniforms would work   
   using those particular color codes. They looked more like Rudi   
   Gernreich's unisex pajamas from "Space: 1999".
